OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: They Killed Kenny!

[Double-Shift Lasse]

That must’ve been the “old Steelers.”

Happy to have been wrong.

So far…

 

[Empoleon8771]

why wouldn't you play for the field goal in this situation? It's a near automatic win.

Trying for a TD only increases a chance of a pass and INT.

Yeah I hate how passive this team has been at times but going for a FG there is 100% the correct call.

Is it just about squezzing out an ugly win against a team without their star QB????????? Or do you want to try build for something greater??

I know what I want......

 

[Peat]

Hey look, if he defense chokes a quick touchdown, Kenny has another drive to get over 300...

This is the optimism I like to see.

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

Can we have one where I don’t have to pace the room for the last 2:00?

Correct. Force them to use timeouts

 

[UnrealMachine]

Fire OC- check
Gain 400- check

16 pts which is season avg==== winning

Probably the big difference is that when you out-gain and out-possession your opponent they in turn get fewer drives (against a rested defense) to score points.

And the opposition doesn't have their star qb

Don't make me use the Rorschach gif again

 

[Rossi Rat]

If you think the Steelers are fixed, terrific. Here we go.


The gospel of Mark Madden. You all KNOW by season’s end, he is going to be right. Again.

 

[OnMyOwn]

I mean yea the FG makes sense on the surface to make it 2 possessions. But they were driving easy and have been awful at putting the ball in the endzone. Playing safe when you’re trying to see what this team even has to offer is what annoys me about it.

 

[PensandCaps]

Stupid 2 minute warning.

Might as well come out throwing.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Great play by Pickens there to stay upright long enough to hit the two-minute warning. Had he gone down immediately, the Steelers would have had to get a 1st down or the Bengals would have gotten a chance to get the ball back with like 40 seconds left due to the two-minute warning.

But because he stayed upright for that bit of extra time, the Steelers can run the clock out.

Oh, didn't notice that.

 

[Coastal Kev]

I feel about .001% more positive after today.

They finally threw over the middle and used the TE... joy

Terrible coaching decision making
Still ultra conservative approach, no sense of urgency to score TD's
16 measily points against a team with Duck Hodges playing qb.

Tomlin racking up meaningless wins to keep his friends employed.

 

[Rossi Rat]

Mark when some rube acted like he’s upset the Steelers won:

Couldn’t care less. Pens won yesterday, LFC drew at City. That’s my weekend, &I’ll take it. It’s amazing what you twits think I care about.

LFC is an absolute wagon. He will always beat you.

 

[Coastal Kev]

Tomlin has indeed defined a new standard for the franchise

Mediocre Mike Strikes again~~~!! New contracts are now on tap for him and his pathetic staff.

 

[PensandCaps]

Imagine if that Ravens game comes down to getting the #1 seed or the #5 seed.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Just amazing

Who the hell would be stupid enough to think this team is fixed?

They had 400 yards of offense and scored 16 points.

f*** are you on about?

Who said fixed?
The offense was better today. Baby steps.
Is Madden your brother?

 

[UnrealMachine]

Don’t give away our best strategy!

 

[Shaftception]

If the jags can hang on against the texans here, that would help the steelers standings wise.

Nobody gives a Rossi Rat's a$$ about LFC, it's not the flex you think it is....

There is something quite wrong with you. [if you don’t already know]
